"What can we do?" Zhou Tong became more energetic when he heard this, and when he mentioned Gastrodia elata, he was most concerned about it.
"Just do as I say!"
Li Xiucheng did not explain in detail, but continued: "Huang Qinghe must have other channels. Ask him if he can get distribution contracts from other county agricultural companies. Note that he wants the kind of county agricultural companies that mainly produce medicinal materials and mountain products.
If you have it, send it along and ask him to hurry up and tell him that we are waiting to use it. "
"OK!"
After Zhou Tong heard this, he immediately got up and ran to the side to make a phone call.
Zhao Qiang just came over after finishing his work. He put the money in front of Li Xiucheng and said gratefully: "I have listened to Lan Lan's explanation of everything. Thank you so much, Boss Li."
He originally wanted to call him brother, but he hesitated when he thought of the three eldest brothers, and finally changed his mind.
"I also have a daughter, who will be five years old soon!" Li Xiucheng's eyes widened with a smile as he talked about Duoduo. "Lan Lan is a pure and kind little angel like her, and she should be protected by us."
After saying that, he pushed the money back: "Just keep the money and treat it as the mental damage compensation that the bastard paid."
"But this is five hundred."
"Didn't I just say that I was buying candies for Lan Lan!" Li Xiucheng grabbed the money and pressed it into his hand. It was obvious that this man's family was in a tight situation, so he treated the two hundred dollars as charity.
"Take it!" Yao Jinshan also advised: "The little girl is kind and cute, we all like her very much, just think of it as a meeting gift from the elders."
"This... thank you." Zhao Qiang hesitated for a moment and did not shirk. He collected the money, but his eyes became more and more grateful.
"By the way, what do you do?" Yao Jinshan changed the subject.
"I... work as a laborer! I'm at Tai Koo Pier."
"Oh, no wonder I have such a physique! Ordinary people may not be able to withstand your punch."
Zhao Qiang smiled and did not answer the words, but Lan Lan, who had been eating her dough, raised her head and said, "Dad is a warrior, very powerful!"
"From the army?" Li Xiucheng asked in surprise.
"Yes, I have been a soldier for several years. My wife got sick and I had to come here for treatment. I also found some temporary work here."
No wonder, having a seriously ill patient in the family can really bring down a family.
After chatting for a while, Zhou Tong came back after making a phone call, and Li Xiucheng stood up to say goodbye.
Before leaving, Lan Lan still looked reluctant to leave.
After getting in the car, Yao Jinshan sent the two of them to meet Lu Pingnan before leaving.
The place where Gastrodia elata is kept is located in a newly rented three-story building next to Yao Jinshan's lumber warehouse.
The first floor was filled with gastrodia elata, and two door-board cribs were placed near the stairs.
The worker who had been guarding during the day had already finished get off work, and Lu Pingnan was left alone, lying on the bed and being bored. When the two came back, he immediately asked if the Gastrodia issue had been resolved.
Li Xiucheng was busy calling Su Xiaomeng and didn't answer.
Zhou Tong lay down on the small plank bed opposite, straightened his back, and groaned: "How can it be so easy? Running for a day is exhausting!
Let me tell you, what happened today was quite bizarre! "
Next, Zhou Tong began to vividly describe what happened today. Lu Pingnan looked envious when he heard about the city tour, admired when he heard about Li Xiucheng's plan to help the little girl, and suddenly turned pale when he heard the name Zhao Qiang. A change.
Interrupted: "Zhou Tong, do you think Zhao Qiang is very strong? He has a scar on his arm!"
ah?
Zhou Tong turned over and sat up: "What's wrong? Do you know him?"
"We had a chance meeting!" Lu Pingnan cheered up, "I met him once during a military competition before! He was a former Triple Crown champion of personal strength. At that time, I wanted to compete with him.
As a result, he was discharged from the army early! I regretted it for a while, but I didn't expect him to arrive in Guangzhou.
But... why did you go to the night market to work as a stall? "
"have no idea!"
Zhou Tong shook his head. He was on the phone and didn't hear the subsequent conversation, so he didn't know.
"Because her wife needs money for medical treatment!"
Li Xiucheng came over with the phone in hand, sat next to Zhou Tong, and said to Lu Pingnan, "Do you know why Zhao Qiang retired from the army early?"
"It's not clear. Many people asked about it at first, but no one said anything."
"Oh, how is he usually?"
"There's nothing to say about this, he's quite a generous person." Lu Pingnan came to his senses, Li Xiucheng had some ideas, he thought about it seriously and said, "At least everyone I know admires him as a person.
Let's just say that the knife on his arm was blocked by his teammates when dealing with drug dealers. "
"Oh~" Li Xiucheng nodded. He could block the knife for his teammates. Such a person should not have bad character.
"If you're not in a hurry about the Gastrodia elata, let Zhou Tong stay here tomorrow. I'll go check out the wholesale market for medicinal materials, and you can go visit your old comrades. There must be a lot of difficulties in dragging a family to see a doctor!
Please help us if you can. "
Lu Pingnan nodded happily: "Okay!"
When Zhou Tong heard that he would stay for a day tomorrow, he immediately lost his energy and fell onto the bed again.
Knowing that this guy was restless, Li Xiucheng smiled and slapped him in the face: "I haven't asked you yet, what is Huang Qinghe's reply?"
"The contract is no problem! And he can help us get contracts for six more counties in Wu County, Da County in Sichuan Province, Bijie County, and Tongjiang County in Guizhou Province within two days. He also said that if we are not in a hurry, we can get more contracts. local.”
"Huang Qinghe is very hardworking!"
"Old Wu has already spread the word. If you have money, he will certainly be interested."
"Well, you've been urging me a lot in the past two days! Try to get it within three days."
"good!"
...
Early the next morning, Yao Jinshan came over with breakfast. After eating, Zhou Tong and the workers were left behind, and the three of them set off to Taikoo Pier first.
Zhao Qiang was quite famous on the dock, and someone would give him directions as soon as he asked.
It didn't take much effort to find Zhao Qiang carrying a bag on the shore.
Zhao Qiang was carrying a large sack and a bulging snakeskin bag under his arm. Even so, he still followed a businessman to the dock with steady steps.
"Boss Li?" As he approached, Zhao Qiang was a little surprised when he saw Li Xiucheng and Yao Jinshan walking towards them. As for Lu Pingnan, he didn't recognize them for a while.
"Let's talk when you're done!" Li Xiucheng grabbed Lu Pingnan who was about to speak.
"good!"
Zhao Qiang responded and quickened his pace, forcing the businessman to jog as well.
After delivering the things to the bus stop and collecting the money, Zhao Qiang turned to Li Xiucheng who was following him and said, "Boss Li, why are you here?"
Li Xiucheng didn't say anything, but just pushed Lu Pingnan.
Lu Pingnan walked up to Zhao Qiang and smiled.
"Zhao Laohu!"
Zhao Qiang's eyes narrowed and he looked at Lu Pingnan for a long time before saying: "Lu... Lu Pingnan!"
"Yes, it's me!" Lu Pingnan grinned, smiling happily.
Zhao Qiang looked at Li Xiucheng and then at Lu Pingnan. He was extremely surprised and sighed: "I didn't expect to see my former comrades again!"
"What is your relationship with Boss Li?"
"The relationship between friends and employers." This was what Li Xiucheng said. After saying this, he smiled and said, "I won't interrupt you to talk about our friendship. We have something else to do, so let's go ahead and go to your stall to eat noodles in the evening."
Hearing this, Zhao Qiang smiled heartily and was very happy to see his comrades.
"Okay, enough!"
